Issues that revolve around security may come into sharp relief now, and events may highlight the contrast between abundance and scarcity. While this often is a material concern, it also can reflect an inner dynamic that affects certain, if not all, areas of your life. It is possible that missed chances may bother you at this time, especially if you are reluctant to take action. If you are a ?just do it? kind of person, imprudent choices can deplete you. Regardless of where you stand, the circumstances of this period can give you deep insight into the relationship between what you have and what you lack. Understanding how each drives the other can mean greater enthusiasm for accomplishing whatever goal you seek since it is perceived deficiencies that can generate improvement.

Sometimes whatever is unsatisfactory in your life may become more so during this interval, although that usually occurs when you harden yourself to the many opportunities for betterment that often manifest now. Taking anything to an extreme tends to set up an opposite reaction, and one test of this cycle is to implement a balance between those forces that typically move and act differently and yet complement each other. Integrating positive with negative, expansion with contraction, and advances with retreats are some of the challenges of this time.

Success can happen now, and it usually emerges out of perceived failures that serve as the necessary motivation to continue until the objective is reached. Although you can achieve elevated status now, it usually is a deserving reward for considerable work and effort over a period of time. What you gain now is likely earned and can represent your ability to bring together disparate yet necessary elements for completing a task.
